Survivor: Samoa Cast Announced

CBS has announced the cast for Survivor: Samoa, the 19th installment of the series. The new season debuts Thursday, September 17th at 8:00pm ET/PT.

The network also revealed the first twist thrown at the contestants as the season opens, stating, "From the start of the game, Survivor embraces this Samoan culture by incorporating an ancient tradition of electing an individual leader of the village. Without speaking, both tribes must immediately choose one member of their group to become their sole decision maker, their chief. How important will the role of tribal chief be in determining the fate of each tribe?"
